This one was a bit hard to track down. After a while, my /etc/motd
would be reduced to one empty line or info about packages updates.

It happens that pam_motd executes /etc/update-motd.d if it exists (with
run-parts) but nothing in this directory rebuilds the standard motd.

This could be a bug in update-notifier-common, or in pam (not providing
a small file such as:
ebene:~$ cat /etc/update-motd.d/00-header 
#!/bin/sh
uname -snrvm
[ -f /etc/motd.tail ] && cat /etc/motd.tail
